Chapter 136

Outside Nanyang City, in a military camp less than ten miles away.

In a simple marching car, several people in military uniforms sat around the conference table, staring at the TV screen on the wall. The screen shows the image in Nanyang city. The image is transmitted back through the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft suspended over Nanyang city. If Lu Ziming sees these equipment, he may be angry and jealous, "why is the gap between people so big?"

Stationed outside Nanyang city is the 0213 mechanized division of the 13th army of Jinan Military Region. The number of this division reached 20000 in the civilized period, and now it has expanded to nearly 30000. However, it is full of recruits, and less than 20% of the soldiers with real combat effectiveness.

It is the military's limit to retain 20% of the combat effectiveness. Some unimportant legions don't even have 10% of the combat effectiveness, and the soldiers can't even grasp the gun.

Peng Biao, political commissar of the 0213 division, with a tuft of beard on his mouth, calmly pointed to the screen around him and said: "It took us a month and a half to restore the number of troops to the level before the virus. During this period, through the elimination of zombies in the periphery of Nanyang, we not only eliminated a large number of zombies, but also improved the combat capability of recruits. Now it is time to launch a general attack on the urban area of Nanyang.".

"Political commissar Peng, the recruits have only been trained for one and a half months, and the casualties are heavy. Are we too anxious?" At the head of the conference table, there was a thin and capable man with no expression on his face and a faint smile on his mouth. This man was Qi Xingguo, commander of the second brigade. He was called Qi monkey. He was cunning and clever. He was the most observant and jumped out to try his way first.

"Hurry! Do you think we don't have this strength, or do you think we can't win the war?" Peng Biao said with a sneer at the corners of his mouth.

Qi Xingguo refused to show weakness and said, "I don't mean that. Just now political commissar Peng himself said that there are more than one million zombies in Nanyang city. If we count the scattered zombies around, the number should reach more than two million. Now we have only 30000 recruits. It's no problem to fight a local battle, but we have to launch a general attack on Nanyang... It seems that the time is in a hurry." 。

"Are you questioning the orders of the military headquarters?"

"No!"

Peng Biao waved the document in his hand and said, "the military headquarters called and asked us to end the battle in Nanyang as soon as possible. Do you know how much impact the restoration of a big city will have on the war in the whole country? This battle is decided by the military headquarters. If anyone has any objection, they can directly put it forward to the military headquarters".

A few days ago, the Jinan Military Region decided to launch a small-scale battle in Nanyang. The battle of division level units was indeed a small and no smaller battle for the Jinan Military Region. It was also a tentative attack.

The reason why Jinan military region launched such a campaign at this time is entirely out of political considerations. The successful recovery of a medium-sized city is not only a strategic need, but also a vital encouragement to the restoration of confidence on the whole battlefield.

It has been two months since the outbreak of the virus. Except for some small towns, the military has not recovered a large and medium-sized city. Some survivors doubt the military's ability. Some people in the military are also dissatisfied with the leadership of the military's senior level. The Jinan military region can't wait to show its iron fist.

"Well, this matter was decided by the military headquarters, and our division must implement it unconditionally. The opinion of political commissar Peng is my opinion." Zhang Pu slowly raised his head, his eyes deep and covered with blood, as if he had not rested for a long time, and his tone did not fluctuate at all "This task is quite arduous. The general staff has issued a battle plan. These two days, all units should gather at the designated position and wait for the order of the general offensive.".

Division commander Zhang Pu's words represent the decision of the whole division. There is no room for discussion. No matter whether the plan is feasible or not, we must finish the battle. Besides, this is the army.

With Zhang Pu's support, Peng Biao looked arrogant and said: "I know your concerns. You are all leaders of the army. You know when the attack is powerful for the army, but the bounden duty of soldiers is to obey orders. The military headquarters issued the Nanyang battle plan a week ago and ordered our division to launch a general attack before October 1 to present a great gift for the national day. This is the glory of our division and the whole Jinan Military Region. We should fight well This campaign should not disappoint the hope of the people of the whole country for us... ".

Pang Xu, the commander of the first brigade, listened to Peng Biao's impassioned mobilization speech, glanced secretly at Zhang Pu, the division commander, and found that Zhang Pu was frowning, as if thinking about something.

Qi Xingguo kicked Pang Xu under the conference table with his feet. As soon as their eyes touched, they turned and looked at Gong Cheng, the third brigade commander next to them. As soon as their eyes touched, they bowed their heads again, as if nothing had happened.

At this time, a map of Nanyang urban area appeared on the screen. Peng Biao pointed to the map and said: "the opinion of the Staff Department is to keep the buildings in Nanyang urban area as much as possible, drive the zombies entrenched in the urban area to the suburbs, and then focus on the elimination of zombies, so as to obtain the greatest war results at the least cost...".

"Will zombies obey our command? According to my experience, zombies usually don't leave their gathering place unless they are lured with fresh flesh and blood. Luring a large number of zombies from urban areas to suburbs requires a lot of food, but we don't have so much food in our hands now," Gong Cheng said.

Peng Biao looked at Gong Chengdao as if he were an idiot: "Have you forgotten that there are still information hormones? As long as we spray a large amount of information hormones on the pre-designed route, zombies will move forward along the road sprinkled with information hormones. The general staff has done a lot of experiments in this regard. As long as we can lure zombies from the urban area to the suburbs, we can use our heavy weapons to carry out destructive treatment on zombies on a large scale Strike... ".

General Qi Xingguo felt that the people of the general staff were unreliable. Based on some data in the laboratory, he could conclude that the zombies would leave the urban area obediently. What would the soldiers do in the street fighting.

Gong Cheng couldn't help but say, "political commissar Peng, what if the zombie doesn't leave the urban area? Do we have a backup plan?"

"Of course!" Peng Biao said excitedly: "In order to prevent zombies from escaping from Nanyang City in other directions, our division will seal several main exits of the city in advance, leaving only one exit to let zombies enter the trap we designed. For this plan, the military headquarters has added 50 tanks, 200 artillery, 80 rockets, 1000 heavy weapons and a large amount of ammunition, and will send a helicopter company to support them Hold our battle, do you have any questions? "
